You're building a superb resource here Chris. I hope the mods take note as having all this info linked from one thread is is a real asset (and selling point) for this site. It should be made a 'sticky' at the top of the theory section.

Thank you very much for the kind remarks @equalsql, good idea too IMHO.

The spirit of this place is one of sharing, so I am pleased that so many people are visiting this thread, and I hope that you are all gaining something useful from it.

Linking useful resources and making them available and expandable long term, is a weakness in most of the limited number of forums I have visited, usually for research purposes, and then you are almost solely reliant on Google for that. There is a lot of very useful, or just plain interesting information appearing on theFretBoard, which would be nice to find easily instead of sinking slowly out of focus, which is the issue with the "historical relevance" based forum model.

I think that apart from the loss through the "sinking" process, that a lot of discussions already on here would continue to attract new contributions as new members join in, or as somebody changes their gear portfolio, or just wants to research something that has already been covered. Even in a day or two they can sink totally out of sight. The only way to do that now is via site search, Google or just trailing the archives, and you really have to know that the knowledge exists to start that whole process. I am sure there is a better way.

OK then, here is another small block of lessons, just to stop y'all getting bored over the weekend.

It really is up to you if you want to have a go at the exam one, but it is a great way of seeing "what has stuck and where you suck", so it makes a good guide as to whether it's a good idea to go back over any topics already covered.

This is laid out here to make it easy to go over anything you want, whenever you want.

A little bit at a time, and a quick look back, is sometimes the best way to move forwards.

Good luck with the exam if you go for it, treat it as an enjoyable challenge...

Thank you for the kind words chaps, just glad I found this and can share with you on this great forum, I hope it helps in the lifelong quest to express ourselves via that fantastic instrument we have chosen, the guitar, or whatever else we choose to play.

The wows are really deserved by Andrew Furmanczyk, who kindly made all of these free videos.

He posted this on his YouTube channel in May 2013.

I think it gives an insight into the person who made these and his reasons behind giving substantial time out of his own busy life to help others.

A very likeable and generous human being, I wish more people in this world had his attitude towards others, the world would indeed be a better place.

I wish him the very best of luck and life for the future.

There was nowhere that this fitted into the course, or any of my other posts, but I wanted to share this with you.
